The Melbourne Portrait Group is a Melbourne-based initiative emerging from the ARC-funded research project Humankind: Transforming identity in Australian and British portraits, 1700-1900 in the National Gallery of Victoria. Its purpose is to promote news and commentary on the subject of portraiture and to provide a network for portraiture scholars, including researchers, curators, museum professionals and conservators. Although based in Melbourne, the Melbourne Portrait Group aims to connect portrait specialists across Australia and further afield.
The Melbourne Portrait Group is an independent organisation, with no affiliation to any academic or cultural institution, but we welcome collaboration with all relevant institutions and organisations.
